Chitin derived from the seafood wastes such as waste crab, shrimp and lobster shells is
abundant and renewable, and will become one of the most important chemical raw …

Currently, the Earth is subjected to environmental pressure of unprecedented proportions in
the history of mankind. The inexorable growth of the global population and the …

In this work, chitin microspheres (NCM) having a nanofibrous architecture were constructed
using a “bottom‐up” fabrication pathway. The chitin chains rapidly self‐assembled into …

In this mini-review, we shall first cover a short history of the discovery of chitin isolated from
sponges; as well as its evolutionarily ancient roots. Next, we will delve into the unique …

Crystalline polysaccharides are useful for important and rapidly growing applications
ranging from advanced energy storage, green electronics, and catalyst or enzyme supports …

Greener alternatives to synthetic polymers are constantly being investigated and sought
after. Chitin is a natural polysaccharide that gives structural support to crustacean shells …
